    they often approve of the racial genocides, hunting down of the lgbt and other morally reprehensible stuff this authoritarian regimes did.

    Tankies are economically leftwing but their social views can be…questionable

      I do not believe without a source that Reddit admins were banning chapos for upvoting positive-spin genocide. Not that I doubt it happened, but if they were doing that there wouldn’t have been anyone left in the conservative subs (except for reasons, of course)

      I can believe chapo was one of the subs that would ban you for doing it or commenting in the wrong sub like AgainstHateSubs would but that’s a different claim than what you’re making.

      That all said, it’s probably pretty hard to find a source for decade old Reddit drama at this point, but if you’ve got one let it rip.
